Robinson Balances Coaching and Campaigning: It’s election season in addition to the final laps of the 2007-08 men’s basketball season. That makes coaching Brown and campaigning for Sen. Barack Obama difficult for the Bears’ Craig Robinson, who is a brother-in-law of the Democratic hopeful. For Tuesday’s recent slate of primaries, Robinson led practice in Providence, then flew to Chicago to watch the results with his sister Michelle and Obama. Robinson actively campaigns for Obama throughout New England, but he must abide by university rules that prevent him from conducting business from his office or as a representative of the team.

College Basketball Tonight

We hope you enjoyed COLLEGE BASKETBALL TONIGHT during the 2016 NCAA Tournament. COLLEGE BASKETBALL TONIGHT is a comprehensive look at the NCAA Tournament hosted by veteran college basketball broadcaster Ted Sarandis, along with co-hosts Mike Jarvis and Terry O'Connor, both former Division I coaches. It also included many great guests, including Hoopville's own Phil Kasiecki.

The show aired on AM 710 WOR in New York City on Sunday evenings starting with Selection Sunday and running through the NCAA Tournament.

"In reading this book, I can see that Mike hasn't lost his edge or his purpose. Readers should take a look at what he has to say."-Jim Calhoun, Three-time NCAA champion, UConn Men's basketball
